Other players in the market, like Airbnb and Bookabach, offer screening that finds properties that allow pets to stay — but every property listed on the Pet Friendly Stays website is suitable for furry guests.
Seekom chief executive Nicole Irschick said Pet Friendly Stays responds to New Zealanders’ love for their furry companions by making it easier for the whole family to find accommodation.
“Seekom is thrilled to launch Pet Friendly Stays so no family member has to stay behind while travelling.”
The new site allows Kiwis to browse pet-friendly accommodation listings by region or type, and provides more detailed data, including listing aspects of individual rooms that pet owners might find relevant.
The website also lists additional information about local amenities and pet necessities, including local dog parks, the best pet-friendly walking trails, and the nearest veterinary clinics.
“New Zealand pet owners can now find accommodation that welcomes their pets and meets all their needs, right down to the nearest lawn,” Irschick said.
Many major brand hotels in New Zealand do not allow pets, but do allow service animals, such as guide dogs and emotional support animals.
